Operator Recommendations

Statistics-based guidelines for optimal drying:

• Set Temperature vs Dry Moisture: -0.22. Higher temperature dries better if negative (e.g., -0.5 = strong drying), wetter grain if positive (e.g., 0.3 = less drying). NaN = insufficient data.
• Drop Interval vs Dry Moisture: 0.25. Longer intervals dry better if negative (e.g., -0.4 = good drying), shorter intervals leave wetter grain if positive (e.g., 0.2).
• Actual Temperature vs Dry Moisture: -0.19. Hotter burns dry better if negative (e.g., -0.6 = strong effect), less drying if positive.
• Drop Interval vs Dried Mass: -0.34. Shorter intervals increase mass if negative (e.g., -0.3), longer intervals increase mass if positive.
• Set Temperature vs Dried Mass: 0.19. Higher temperature increases mass if positive (e.g., 0.4), less mass if negative.
• Frequent alarm segments (see timeline) indicate overloading—reduce input rate.
• If incoming moisture is close to dry (<1% difference), increase SET_BURNERS_TEMP by 5-10°C to avoid returns.
• Dryer worked 270.1 hours (excluding STOP mode). Adjust input rate if wet grain exceeds 20% per grain type.
• For Raps: overdry < 8%, normal 8-9.5%. For others: overdry < 12.9%, normal 12.9-14.5%.
